Matches require real-time decision-making, team coordination and tactical play - the same skills that matter in STEM careers.
Inter-school Competition
Students go head-to-head with teams from schools across the country in a structured, referee-led championship format.
Taking it beyond the classroom
The Australian Drone Soccer Championship is the pinnacle of competitive drone soccer in Australia. ICC STEM is proud to serve as Event Delivery Partner alongside the Australian Drone Soccer Federation (ADSF), and to have our students competing at this level.
For our students, competing at the ADSC is the culmination of everything they've practised - from their first flight to mastering the strategy and teamwork that separates good pilots from great ones.
